Description

Possessed by Thomas B. Allen reveals the chilling true story behind the exorcism that inspired the legendary horror film The Exorcist. In 1949, a thirteen-year-old boy from a Maryland suburb became the focus of one of the most harrowing documented cases of demonic possession. Night after night, Father William S. Bowdern and Father Walter Halloran performed the exorcism rites in St. Louis, determined to free the boy from a terrifying evil presence.

Drawing from a priest’s detailed diary — the most complete exorcism record since medieval times — Thomas B. Allen meticulously reconstructs the events, offering readers a rare and unnerving glimpse into a real-life spiritual battle. The book not only explores the frightening phenomena witnessed during the exorcism but also delves into the faith, courage, and doubts of those involved.

A compelling mix of investigative journalism, history, and theological insight, Possessed stands as a powerful account of good versus evil and a testament to enduring belief in the supernatural.
